CANADIANS DISCOVER INTERNET STOCKS: Junior Mining Companies Think It''s Voisey''s Bay in Cyberspace Part I SHfn USA News Room (Sarasota, FLA/SHfn/April 15) -- Gold Rush in Cyberspace or Lost in Space? Some Canadian junior mining companies are taking their cue from Australian mining companies, if not Yahoo! and eBay. At least nine Aussie miners traded in their dynamite and deep trenches for the World Wide Web, over the past two months. Never ones to miss an "area play," Canadian juniors scramble from one hot zone to another, even if it is only to keep their dream-child company alive for another chance of striking it rich. If not for their shareholders, at least for themselves. Diamonds were hot in 1994, copper-nickel-zinc had cache in 1995, gold had zing in 1996 and until Good Friday 1997, but now anything that''s "online" sounds more precious than the rarest emeralds. One thing is certain - the exploration companies love to play "follow the leader." Bid.com could be this year''s Dia Met or Diamond Fields, but is it possible the company might just as well be this year''s BRE-X Minerals? Don''t think Vancouver-based mining companies aren''t up to their old tricks - trying to exchange their paper for your cash. Some deals will work, if only for a short time. The majority will leave you clean and dry. It''s not limited to just mining companies, but also includes perennial promise-breakers like Network Gaming [Vancouver - NGQ], which couldn''t make a go of it, with their non-proprietary bingo gaming machines on Indian reservations. What makes you think they can solve their problems by slapping a new version of their same game on the Internet? Stupidity, to begin with. The same losing shareholders, stuck with a stagnant stock price throughout 1998 and until March 25th, are not going to be willing whistle-blowers, when they can dump their shares into the liquidity of this wink-and-a-nod company.
